We are pleased to offer two new online learning services both sponsored by the Friends of Piermont Public Library.

Universal Class and Transparent Language Online have both been added to the Services section of our website. All you need to access these exciting new resources is a Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library car and your home computer. Please note: some Transparent Language activities require access to your home computer's camera and microphone.

Dennis P. McHugh Piermont Public Library is pleased to offer Materials-by-Mail for the homebound. Any person residing within the Piermont Library District who is unable to come to the library because of limited mobility, illness or handicap is eligible to have materials delivered by mail. Eligibility will be determined by the librarian after conducting a telephone interview with the interested patron.

Library materials will be delivered to a homebound patron’s residence via the US Postal Service at no charge to the patron. Postage will be paid by the Library Association of Rockland County (LARC). Contact Jessica at info@piermontlibrary.org for further information or to schedule an eligibility interview.

'Geek the Library’ is a community-based public awareness campaign designed to highlight the vital role of public libraries and bring attention to the critical funding issues they face.

The awareness campaign introduces the word ‘geek’ as a verb. To ‘geek’ something is to have a passion for it and to possess a large amount of knowledge about it. Whatever you geek, the library supports you.

Everyone geeks something. The ‘Geek the Library’ awareness campaign would love to feature what you geek on the official Web site. Please visit www.geekthelibrary.org.

More and more public libraries do not have adequate funding to continue to provide the important resources your community requires. Increased community support and funding is urgently needed to ensure that the library remains strong for everyone.
